Hondo odyssey, 2001 door latches. Door did not close completely for about 3 months. Then door completely stopped opening or closing even after resetting the system. Honda gave me an estimate of $995.00 for the left door and $875.00 for the right door. I know prior two years this model was produced the latch was recalled. I can not find a recall for my vehicle. I feel it has the same problem as the 1999 and 2000. *tr
